<p>I'm planning on taking 9 AP tests this May, with 4 from school classes, 3 self-studies, and 2 retakes. The 3 self-studies are from interest, and the 2 retakes (2 on Computer Science, 3 on Physics B) are because my teachers agreed to raise my grades from last year (Bs in these 2 classes) to As if I scored a 5 on the 2 tests. </p>
<p>I haven't started studying yet for any yet, but I know my classes will prep me decently well for the first 4 tests (I'll definitely still have to do a substantial amount of prep on my own, though). So my main concern is, which tests should I begin studying for NOW? Which tests can wait until the beginning of April? Any studying or time-management tips would be greatly appreciated :)</p>
<p>Tests:</p>
<p>AP European History (class)
AP Calculus BC (class)
AP Chemistry (class)
AP Art History (class)
AP Macroeconomics (self)
AP Microeconomics (self)
AP Statistics (self)
AP Computer Science A (retake)
AP Physics B (retake)</p>
<p>I’m taking 11 AP tests, but they’re not nearly as hard as yours, because they’re all like Environmental Science or Psychology in difficulty, except for the core classes I’m taking in school (Calculus AB, English Language, Physics C: Mechanics, and World History). So I’m starting to study NOW. Don’t wait until the end, you won’t get 5s.</p>
<p>FYI - to change a final grade from the previous year will take your school district’s approval; not just the teacher saying they will change it. Obviously, I don’t know your teachers but you scoring a 5 may benefit them more than you. Just make sure you check into it before you spend the time and maybe not score as well on the other tests.</p>
